Recent government announcements have ushered in a series of amendments to migration laws aimed at enhancing productivity in Australia and promoting inclusivity. These changes include a new permanent resident visa program for nationals of participating Pacific Island countries, pathway for skilled refugees to live and work in Australia and extended stays for Temporary Skill Shortage visa (subclass 482) holders from the UK. Employers should take note of these changes as they assist individuals from these groups in their migration to Australia.
